Kids Thrive is Victoria’s leading arts and community development organisation committed to child-led social change.
For 10 years we have been fostering child-led community change in schools, health centres, libraries, community hubs - anywhere we can provide a creative environment where kids can thrive.
Our work equips kids with life-long skills, empowering them to identify and lead the change they want to see in their communities.
Vision
Our vision is for all children to thrive and be empowered to lead creative community change. We nourish connections between children and their local communities, develop children’s leadership skills, build their resilience and foster their capacity to drive positive change.
“It takes a village to raise a child, but through a child we can raise a village.” Dr Andrea Lemon, Founder, Kids Thrive
Our people
Founders Dr Andrea Lemon and Andrea Rieniets each bring more than 30 years’ experience to Kids Thrive, to empower children to be creative catalysts for community change.
